That's correct, under normal circumstances. 2 or 3 weeks of questionable light leaks as soon as flowering is started will do... what exactly? His circumstances were abbynormal.

He flowered for a little over two weeks and somewhere during that time the plants may have decided to go back to veg due to light leaks. Even if the light leaks are now fixed, it could take two weeks to finish reverting, then another two weeks or more to go back to flowering mode, once it decides it's in flowering mode, then a plant can take two weeks or more to show signs of bud. There's a whole bunch of variables in this case, and who the heck knows what's going to happen. It might just decide to take a couple weeks off for some well deserved rest, and do absolutely nothing. We might see a plant that's all male on the top half and all female on the bottom half, with 2 or 3 rose buds popping up.

Just keep proper light on it and don't change the circumstances of the grow much. Anything you change, do it gradually while you watch for signs of stress.
Opie Yutts Reviewed by Opie Yutts on . Plants won't flower! OK, so heres the deal. I have 2 plants (bagseed) I vegged for about 6 weeks, then put into 12/12 on Oct 1st. So its been 18 days and they haven't flowered at all. I had some light leaks at first, but the closet is 99% lightproof for the last 10 days or so. I have them in 3 gal pots with 6x26w cfl and 2x42w cfl on them for a total of 240 watts of CFL. So I'm wondering if it is normal for plants to take this long to go into flower, or is something else going on? Thanks in advance for Rating: 5
